Whistler was annoyed at the numerous reproductions of the Peacock Room published in 1892 after F. R. Leyland's death, such as the engraving published in the Art Journal showing the room with the porcelain in place. 1 In a letter to David Croal Thomson (1855-1930) in 1892 he proposed the publication of an album of reproductions of the room in gold and blue. 2 He also asked Thomson to send the reproductions published in June 1892 in the Pall Mall Budget to him in Paris. 3 When the Peacock Room was exhibited by Obach & Co. in London in 1904, Leyland's collection had long been sold and A. T. Hollingsworth lent Nankin porcelain to put on the shelves. It was probably this collection, and not Leyland's porcelain, which appears in the final photograph of the room in the catalogue published by Obach. 4 A set of photographs of the room, with porcelain in place, was made by Bedford Lemere (National Monuments Record), probably in 1904.
